Ganz Griechenland war in Gefahr. Ein mächtiges Heer, angeführt vom großen König von Persien, war aus dem Osten gekommen. Es marschierte die Meeresküste entlang und würde in wenigen Tagen in Griechenland sein.

All Greece was in danger. A mighty army, led by the great King of Persia, had come from the east. It was marching along the seashore, and in a few days would be in Greece.

Der große König hatte Boten in jede Stadt und jeden Staat gesandt und sie aufgefordert, ihm Wasser und Erde als Zeichen dafür zu geben, dass das Land und das Meer ihm gehörten. Doch sie sagten:

The great king had sent messengers into every city and state, bidding them give him water and earth in token that the land and the sea were his. But they said,—

"Nein: Wir wollen frei sein."

"No: we will be free."
